For us in the Aditya B​irla​ Group, reaching out to underserved communities is part of our DNA. We believe in the trusteeship concept. This entails transcending bu​siness interests and grappling with the “quality of life” challenges that underserved communities face, and working towards making a meaningful difference to them.​

Our vision is - “To actively contribute to the social and economic development of the communities in which we operate. In so doing build a better, sustainable way of life for the weaker and margina​lized sections of society and raise the countr​y’s human development index”- Mrs. Rajashree Birla, Chairperson, Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives and Rural Development.

All projects are identified in consultation with the community in participatory manner, literally sitting with them and gauging their basic needs. We recourse to the participatory rural appraisal mapping process. Subsequently, based on a consensus and in discussion with the village panchayats, and other stakeholders, projects are prioritized.

Arising from this our focus areas that have emerged are Education, Health care, Sustainable livelihood, Infrastructure development, and espousing social causes. All of our community projects/programmes are carried out under the aegis of The Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives and Rural Development. Our activities are in line with Schedule VII of the companies Act, 2013.
